Okay, I went through all the content that is in the game at the moment. It took a week.
What can I say?
Overall, the game is not bad, but far from the best I've played.
In some places I laughed like crazy at some situations and jokes.
In some places I caught cringe.
There is a lot of content in the game and it is quite sad that after such a long development time, apparently not even half was finished. A real long-term project.
You can clearly identify moments that were originally different, but then were redone.
It looks like it was put together from scraps. For example, I'm sure the beginning was changed. But that's not the point.
One possible problem is the unhurried pace of the story. This won't suit everyone.
This is the case when you don’t want to jerk off to a porn game. The intensity of the 18+ content is simply not enough to make the player cum.
Therefore, I would give either 3+ or 4-
It really takes a lot of time to complete and I can’t say that it fully pays off.
Also, we play as a MC who is a bit of an asshole. The game encourages lying, manipulation, and dirty deeds. It doesn't require you to be adequate. It is made in such a way that you, on the contrary, act dishonestly and ugly.
Normally - this aspect of games doesn't make me uncomfortable. But specifically here it didn't really appeal to me and directly resonated with me. Because I would have liked to do things differently in some situations, but I realized that in that case - I would lose something. So the game, in order to unlock all the content, forces you to act not the way you want, but the way the author wanted.
The “elections without choice” also made me laugh. At any stage, you can simply press one button to go back and select a different answer. So all these "wrong" choices in games like this are just a rudiment. They don't work. Who in their right mind would deliberately ignore the opportunity to go back and continue the game, choosing a less successful path?
Considering the above, in this case, I see the point in making the game more like a visual novel.
